I would advise your son to sign up for and take Adavanced Placement Tests. Given, they are much harder than CLEPs, but colleges with big names and reputations take them more often than CLEPs. I'm pretty sure they are free but you would have to double check. If you are looking for an easy CLEP to start, tell your son to take the English Composition with Essay. 6 easy credits for him since you mentioned that he loves to edit essays (and perhaps write them). Good Luck!
